Don Imus and Elizabeth Edwards Say All The Right Things At The Local Starbucks

[John]

Welcome to Starbucks, what can I get for you?

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Yeah, you got any Irish coffee?

 

 


I'm sorry, I'm afraid we...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
You're Irish, aren't you?

 

 


No, I'm not. As I was saying...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Well, you look like you've been hittin' the sauce, so I just assumed you were a mick.

 

 


I see. Well, I'm not, so...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
So, what are you, a spic?

 

 


No sir...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
A WOP?

 

 


No

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
A gook?

 

 


No, and I wish you'd...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Well, you're sure as hell not dark enough to be a...

 

 


Sir, PLEASE! I'm really not comfortable with this conversation. I think you're being a little insensitive.

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Insensitive?? Do you know how much money I give to charity?

 

 


No, I don't, and to tell you the truth, right now I don't care, so...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Oh, I get it - a Jew. Shoulda known.

 

 


I'm going to have to ask you to...

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Cheap cheap cheap!

 

 


THAT'S IT! I'm going to have to ask you to leave this gourmet coffee establishment.

 

 

Donimus_with_foot_in_mouth
Coffee?? I thought this was a bar. See you around, Cheapy McSpic.

 

 


Sigh. Can I help you, ma'am?

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
What, you can't bother to put on a tie?

 

 


This is my uniform, ma'am.

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Well, The Senator and I support the troops, but you look like a common servant.

 

 


Serving people is part of my job.

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Well, if you're happy in a dead-end job, that's your business.

 

 


What's that supposed to mean?

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
That's nice. Listen, I want to lodge a complaint.

 

 


Sure, what's the problem?

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
I've been trying to get to this counter for about five minutes, but there were six or eight very rude people who refused to move out of my way.

 

 


That was the line.

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
I don't understand.

 

 


The line...those people got here before you, so they...

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Apology accepted, just make sure it doesn't happen again.

 

 


I wasn't apologiz...

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Are you going to take my order or not?

 

 


Sure - what would you like?

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
What's the most luxurious and expensive coffee on your menu? The rarest jewel in your coffee crown, so to speak.

 

 


The rarest jewel? I don't know, I guess that would be our Caramel Macchiato.

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
That sounds divine. Please prepare one for me and one for The Senator.

 

 


Um...OK.

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Can't you at least throw some linen tablecloths on these tables? This place looks like one of those fast food establishments you see on television.

 

 


I'll see what I can do. Here you go, two Caramel Macchiatos, that'll be...

 

 

Elizabeth_edwards
Paper cups? The Senator and I DO NOT drink from paper cups!

 

 


I should have gone to the bar with that old guy.

Mmmmm... Caramel.

Inus needs an Irish coffee to cure is cure his chronic dysphoria.

Elizabeth Edwards will probably burn up on re-entry once her money runs dry.

Fabulous!!

Who knew the other America was just across the street and inhabited by a Rethuglican, no less.

Amador

Gordon, what are you talking about ?
Your statement has been taken out of context.

Skul

That's it, I'm going to the bar with those other two guys.

You were only off by one letter.

Think "A".
